Me & Evie went into town yesterday...
...I have been buying her school uniform for September (I managed to get the majority of it from Sainsburys school uniform shop).
The only things I need to buy now is a light blue t-shirt for PE (which I think we are going to have to order online) and a raincoat.
The only raincoats that they had when I looked in Sainsburys were either age 5-6 or 9-10 (I even checked the boys sections also), I looked in Primark also and they didnt have her size either.
Back to being in town...
...we were just coming out of a shop and Evie got a hug from our dentist :) I have to book our next appointment soon.
Today we are going to look in Matalan, I also have Asda to check before I end up getting something online.

Why is it that they never have what you want in the size you need? Frustrating. We still need trousers, socks, wellies and plimsoles. I got some trousers from Asda yesterday but I don't like them. I think we'll just go for stretchy ones.
I hope you get sorted soon. X
I bought Evie the stretchy trousers so she doesnt have to do the buttons :) I put her in those on PE days :)
Dont forget a spare raincoat for school too, we were told to get one on the teacher home visit (2 days before sch was due t start her half day sessions).
I think it's great that you can buy uniform from supermarkets and high street stores these days. When I was growing up in the 50s and 60s and for my children too in the 70s and 80s we had to go to specialist shops and the cost of uniform was eye-watering. Still it must be a nightmare for you having to trawl round to find things in the sizes you need. Good luck.
There is a uniform supplier that you can buy the bits at (with the school logo) but they are extortionate prices.
We had trouble getting a PE t-shirt last year too and James ended up getting it online (I think that we are going to have to do that again).
